His belief that all celestial objects consist of the same substance that pervades the heavens but the author in a careful study argues that the heavenly stuff applied to the stars only. He also distinguishes the key points between Aristotle's view and that of Eudoxous of Cnidus. Bound in gray, orange and white paper covered boards lettered in black. A near fine copy.
